KraftMaid Construction in Bloomington, CA | Square One Builders
We provide independent KraftMaid cabinet installation, repair, and full kitchen remodeling across Bloomington, and the thing that sets our work apart here is that we understand the county-island permit path and the deep-lot housing stock this community actually has. If you’re staring at cracked painted doors, sagging shelves, or a kitchen that’s been added onto over the decades and now needs to pass County inspection, call (877) 688-9930. We’re not affiliated with or authorized by KraftMaid, but we’ve rebuilt enough of their cabinetry in the 92316 area to know exactly what holds up and what doesn’t.
Why Bloomington Residents Choose Us for KraftMaid Service
Square One Builders has installed and repaired KraftMaid cabinetry in Bloomington’s post-war ranch homes, manufactured houses, and newer infill tracts for years. We know the door profiles, drawer-box hardware, and finish lines that actually show up in kitchens here: Vantage full-overlay doors, Momentum framed boxes, and plenty of painted Concord and Deluxe drawer stacks. Because we’re a full-scope general contractor, we handle the whole kitchen: cabinetry, countertops, backsplash, plumbing, electrical, and the structural fixes that older Bloomington homes often need before new cabinets go in. Brent Calloway, our owner and general contractor, cut his teeth on exactly this kind of work in Orange County, and he’s kept the same approach here: figure out what’s actually wrong before touching a single door. We’re independent KraftMaid installers and remodelers, not a manufacturer program, so we’re free to tell you when a repair beats a replacement and when it doesn’t.

Common KraftMaid Construction Problems We Solve in Bloomington
- Painted and glazed doors cracking at the panel-to-stile seam – Bloomington’s summer heat cycles and the dry Santa Ana winds that whip off the Cajon Pass open hairline cracks in painted KraftMaid doors, then dust and grease work into the seam. We re-bond the panel, touch up with OEM-matched finish, and on west- or south-facing runs we often re-hang the doors with adjusted hinge tension.
- Particleboard shelves and box bottoms swelling after a slow leak – An ice-maker line or sink supply leak under a KraftMaid sink base can saturate a particleboard shelf or bottom panel before you ever see water. The cabinet looks fine until a shelf sags or a side panel bulges past the face frame. We replace the shelf or box bottom with plywood and re-shim the cabinet if it’s pulled.
- Full-overlay hinges and drawer glides losing adjustment on settled floors – Many older Bloomington ranch homes sit on sandy alluvial soil that shifts over decades, and floors settle just enough that KraftMaid full-overlay doors start to rub and drawers self-open. We reset, shim, and re-adjust the hardware to the actual floor level, not the original spec sheet.
- Finish checking and fading on sun-facing cabinet runs – Single-story post-war layouts in Bloomington often have original window placement that leaves one run of cabinets in direct sun for hours. The finish checks and fades unevenly. We can refinish or reface those runs and match the existing KraftMaid color on the rest of the kitchen.
- Unpermitted owner-built additions that complicate a kitchen remodel – This is the Bloomington-specific one. We regularly see kitchens that were added onto without permits in the 1970s and 1980s, sitting on large deep lots zoned rural-residential. When the house goes to sale or refinance, the county requires legalization, and the kitchen gets pulled into the same permit package.
KraftMaid Service in Bloomington: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Bloomington is an unincorporated county island wedged between Fontana, Rialto, and Colton, and that one fact reshapes how a KraftMaid kitchen gets installed or repaired here. When a remodel touches layout, plumbing, or electrical, the plans route through San Bernardino County plan check rather than a city building counter. That same county path is how long-standing unpermitted owner-built additions on big lots get legalized at sale or refinance, and we’ve seen more than one KraftMaid kitchen pulled onto the same permit package as a shop conversion or a detached garage that was never signed off. In the 92316 area off the Bloomington bench, our crew pulled a KraftMaid Vantage run where the painted doors had cracked at the panel seams and two base cabinets had swollen under a slow ice-maker leak. We replaced the two base boxes with plywood units, reset and re-shimmed the full-overlay hinges to the settled floor, matched the existing finish with OEM touch-up, and set a quartz top. The homeowner passed the county inspection and the kitchen finally closed up tight against the pass wind drafts. That’s the kind of job Bloomington throws at you, and we plan for it from the first site visit.
KraftMaid sales & service in Bloomington means knowing the cabinets and the county path, because the two are often inseparable here.
KraftMaid Models & Products We Service in Bloomington
We work on all the KraftMaid lines that actually sold into this market: Vantage, the all-plywood-box full-overlay line that’s common in higher-end Bloomington remodels; Momentum, the price-point framed line found in a lot of rental and first-home kitchens; Concord, the painted and glazed inset-look cabinetry; and Deluxe, the full-access drawer and door series. We source OEM KraftMaid hinges, glides, touch-up, and matching door panels where the line is still supported. When OEM parts are discontinued or the cabinet is sound but the hardware is tired, we spec quality aftermarket soft-close hardware and plywood shelf replacements. We repair boxes and re-hang doors when the carcass is solid, and we recommend replacement when swelling or seam failure has crossed into the boxes. A new door on a rotten box is money wasted.

FAQs – KraftMaid Construction in Bloomington
Bloomington is unincorporated county land, so structural, plumbing, and electrical work routes through San Bernardino County plan check and inspection, not a city building counter. Any remodel that moves walls, changes the sink or appliance location, or rewires the kitchen needs county permits. We handle the full permit package and inspections from the ground up. Call (877) 688-9930 for a free estimate that includes the permit scope.
In most Bloomington homes, hairline cracks at the panel-to-stile seam are repairable if the box is still solid. The heat and wind cycling off the Cajon Pass causes the painted or glazed finish to separate at the joint. We re-bond the panel, apply OEM-matched touch-up, and adjust the hinge load so the seam isn’t stressed again. If the crack has split the stile or the box itself has shifted, we say so and quote replacement for that section only. Call (877) 688-9930 for a straight answer.
Yes, and it happens more than you’d think. We work with San Bernardino County to legalize the addition and put the new KraftMaid kitchen on the same permit package, so the whole thing passes inspection before the cabinets go in. It’s a longer path than dropping new boxes into a permitted space, but we’ve done enough of these in the 92316 area to keep it moving. Call (877) 688-9930 and we’ll tell you exactly what the county will want to see.
We see Vantage full-overlay and Momentum framed cabinets most often in Bloomington, with Concord painted or glazed inset-look doors in newer remodels. The recurring failures are painted seam cracks from heat cycling and dry wind, particleboard swelling from slow leaks under the sink, and hinge and glide loss on settled ranch-house floors. Our repair approach is the same across all of them: fix the box if it’s sound, replace it if it’s not.
We use OEM KraftMaid hinges, glides, touch-up, and matching door panels where the line is still supported, because the fit and color matter. When OEM parts are discontinued or the cabinet is sound but the hardware is worn out, we spec quality aftermarket soft-close hardware and plywood shelf replacements. We’ll tell you which we’re using and why before we order anything. Call (877) 688-9930 for an exact quote, and the estimate is free.
